Consider the economies of blahnik and gobbledigook, both of which produce gobs of goo using only tools and workers.

suppose that, during the course of 40 years, the level of physical capital per worker rises by 4 tools per worker in each economy, but the size of each labor force remains the same. complete the following tables by entering productivity (in terms of output per worker) for each economy in 2018 and 2058.blahnik: 2018/2058physical capital (tools per worker) 7/11labor force (workers) 30/30output (gobs of goo) 3000/3600productivity (gobs per worker)gobbledigookphysical capital (tools per worker) 4/8labor force (workers) 30/30output (gobs of goo) 2400/3600productivity (gobs per worker)initially, the number of tools per worker was higher in blahnik than in gobbledigook. from 2018 to 2058, capital per worker rises by 4 units in each country. the 4-unit change in capital per worker causes productivity in blahnik to rise by a amount than productivity in gobbledigook. this illustrates the concept of which makes it _ for countries with low output to catch up to those with higher output.

M. cotteleer electronics supplies microcomputer circuitry to a company that incorporates microprocessors into refrigerators and other home appliances. one of the components has an annual demand of 235 units, and this is constant throughout the year. carrying cost is estimated to be $1.25 per unit per year, and the ordering (setup) cost is $21 per order. a) to minimize cost, how many units should be ordered each time an order is placed? b) how many orders per year are needed with the optimal policy? c) what is the average inventory if costs are minimized? d) suppose that the ordering cost is not $21, and cotteleer has been ordering 125 units each time an order is placed. for this order policy (of q = 125) to be optimal, determine what the ordering cost would have to be.
